Time for our motorcycle trip. Off we go to Glacier National Park! We booked a room at the Apgar Village Inn months ago taking the chance that the “Going To The Sun” road may not be completely opened by then. But it opened about two days before we departed. Off

Trail of the Coeur d’Alenes – Plummer, Idaho
We love riding the 72-mile bike trail called the “Trail of the Coeur d’Alenes”. It starts in Plummer, Idaho and winds its way along the southern edge of Lake Coeur d’Alene, on up the east side of the lake to Harrison, and then follows the Coeur d’Alene River on
Continue readingMaryhill State Park – Maryhill, Washington
The final countdown! We have stayed here before and find it to be a great go-to campground when other campgrounds in the area are either full or closed for the season. Many parks in the area don’t open until Mid March or End of March but Maryhill is open year

Just north of Newport a few miles and right off Hwy 101 (and I mean right off) is a forested campground called Beverly Beach State Park. It lies directly east of Hwy 101 (and I mean directly) and with a short walk under the bridge on Hwy 101 you are,

We drove from Brookings to Cape Blanco and stopped a number of times at the Samuel H. Boardman State Park and the Pistol River State Park. There are nice pull outs along the way to stop and soak in the vistas. We eventually made our way to Cape Blanco, the

We made it to Oregon! After a lovely drive on Hwy 101 from Paso Robles, California to the Oregon border (over a period of time) we decided to stop in Brookings for awhile. Brookings is the southern most town on the Oregon coast and known for growing nearly 90% of

It’s that time of year when many RVers are working away busily preparing (if not already on their way) for their long awaited trip to Alaska, the wild frontier! When talking to other RVers, the subject of “Driving to Alaska” comes up now and again as we sit around the

Humboldt Redwoods State Park is located in northern California and covers approximately 53,000 acres full of giant redwoods. This is one of those areas where photography just cannot capture the feel and the enormity of these giants. There are campgrounds, hiking trails, and small towns located throughout the park. In
